Some of you may have wondered: Why do I use CO2 at average 950 ppfd μmol/m2/s (moral flow)? The answer is quite simple. Because of lack of space in some regions of my cultivation area, I simply cannot keep the ideal distance to my Sanlight high-performance lamp, due to some height growth of various strains. And so some of the main colas have ppfd values of 1250 μmol/m2/s and even more... So this is how I manage to achieve and compensate for such high radiation levels even with a CO 2 balance. And I have to say, my strategy to avoid various light stress symptoms works just fabulously. In combination with CO 2 implementation, my babies are simply unbeatably insensitive to light. Thats it! Beginning of 3rd week flowering: Again feeding my babies by 36 hours fermented potions of Bio Tabs Kompost Tea PK-Booster (15 g pro Liter) and added: 5ml Orgatrex/Liter 1 Spoon of Bactrex 1 Spoon of Mycotrex 1 Spoon of Mycco-Vital 1 Spoon of Dynomyco A little tip for those who are interested in small modifications that have a big difference or influence - on the result - effect - beauty - health - taste! Before adding microorganisms or beneficial bacteria or Mycorrizae and Trichodermas, please use oxygen-saturated water. On the one hand, unwanted chlorine gases evaporate and the small world of the microbiome becomes even faster and more rewarding in compost tea to sprout. Last but not least for this week, I would like to introduce my reasons, why I prefer growing biologically and sustainably. First of all, it’s something which suits very well in these times/days we are living now. Sustainability is a big need and task for our planet. 🌎 Nature means life. Our home, the air we breathe and everything that surrounds us. Not just today. Hopefully tomorrow as well. Maybe I'm starting to protect our environment on a small scale, but maybe I can also make a big difference at all. If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change... I thought about what’s the difference, between Mineral Feeding and Super Soil Feeding. It’s very easy. Biologically Growing is a similar process than the natural soil activities out there in the lap of nature’s. So plants has to work and interact with the microorganisms and microbiomic communities in the soil. So the plants will never get lazy like the lazy ones of mineral feeding growers. If you grow biologically, you will feed the soil first and the microorganisms will support every parameter next to your plant conditions. And that will generate an unbelievable spectrum of Terpenes and Trichomes you will never forget. It’s the same comparison, when you daily visit McDonalds and you eat only fast food. How does your body and mind react on this shit for money?!?! May I invite you to think about it… See you next week dear Growmies! Have a nice Weekend and take care… Peace out! Addendum for Day 53: At the moment we unfortunately have another winter onset here in Germany. This means that I am forced to take additional heating measures due to structural facts in order to be able to keep the temperatures constant. After all, just tonight the thermometer climbs again to -1 degree Celsius. In addition, my exhaust air system runs out of my bedroom terrace and I therefore grow winter and summer with the patio door open. Well, sometimes I experience real weather-related challenges. But all in all, no problem... "Where there's a will, there's a way." Addendum to pouring out the fermented PK tea: I always administer half a liter of lukewarm aerated water with 3.5 ml of cannazyme per liter to each plant. This means that the "root machine" is not supplied with supplies unprepared and the nutrient solution can thus also be better distributed in the soil. Since I also work with cloth shoes, I spray them evenly moistened everywhere with water that is also warm before pouring them out from the outside. This has the advantage that the moisture stays where it should: in the pot! ... I did the math today ;-) We are still in week 7 until this Friday. And week 8 starts on Friday! OMG... still so much time yeahh! Today my Fast Buds Sour Jealousy and Sweet Seeds Big Devil and Dark Devil Automatics arrived. I'm looking forward to it. This time Fast Buds next Time Sweet Seeds. Love them too. Very beautiful genetics. Today a review video of the beginning of week 3. At the time of the pictures, I had minor signs of nitrogen excess. (Light peaks first at the crown of the roof and then slightly continuing to the middle section.) I then painstakingly racked my brains as to why this could be. I found that very slight dry spots had formed and therefore the root found small accumulations of nitrogen that caused its problems. But then, when I carefully homogeneously checked the moisture content in the substrate, the problem evaporated again. However, they had not shown any loss of growth rate during this time. Nevertheless, they developed as expected. They Strawnanas had no problem with that. In the end, I always have a hard time killing them. But I guess that's the way things go. We live and die. We come and go. But it's not there yet. ;-) Tomorrow is day 56. Tomorrow’s updating day! Can't wait to see their progress. Have a good time and see you tomorrow… 🏽🕊️ 🏽 ☮️🕊️

Both of them Purple Punch sprouted. Surprised me that, within 24hours in glass of water she showed her root. Will let her veg from now on, as for this grow i am experimenting a fully organic grow without big-bud. Damn it big bud, i wish you are organic hahaha🙃. As for the soil, i doubt there is enough nutes for her to grow so i am going to top dress with bat guano.

Noticed some spots on the leafs I think it's due to the heat (discoloring mostly, not related to a nute burn)

11/24 Week 11 and things are happening Flowering tent: Pussy, F7, is on finish feed today flush tomorrow she is set for a harvest in about 7-10 days Plenty is just gorgeous pride of the tent Octo is finally building well so good times Chew Mee is now tallest in the tent with an inch on Octo she has to stay between the lights now Solitaire is Growing well and building but the lack of space is showing on her Dink is growing bushy but well Auto tent All on half n' half switching to full bloom shortly Bambi is just huge keeping her in line but yeah tall girl Thumber slow to grow does not look like she will be tall Holly f7 doing well Mary Gold Leaf growing well also as is Tiffany I know the camera sucks but given all thats happening its just not a priority we are barely finding time to update diaries at all 1/25 Big nuet change Cocotek Bloom running low cant get more for any decent price so switched the Flowering tent to Floraduo also stopped Peak as Pussy is in flush so save it for others later. Both GHE so pretty seamless except for adding cal-mag Pussy in her last week, progress must be made would let her go longer but needs dictate Plenty and Octo progressing well ahead of breeder info so looking at a couple of weeks there. Sativas reaching for the sky, Chew Mee making herself seen Dink taken off booster seat Solitaire looking pretty gave her more room by taking some from Pussy as she finishes. Auto tent remains on cocotek for a few more feeds but will shift as well. Damn GD messed up again, doubled part of the nuet list so be aware the list may be wrong Corrected list again maybe its fixed now 1/27 Flower tent Pussy continues to finish nicely Octo and Plenty right behind but a week or so Others doing well Auto Tent Bambi is a big girl she will be moved to the flower tent to replace Pussy Space the last frontier... and we are SHORT so continue to tweek things to get them through this Clone tent Clones growing a bit slow but the light situation is less than ideal for them. Only 100 watts in the tent. F7 and LSD ready for topping GC will need more time Plan is to flip between 12 - 14 inches after topping recovery Will firm up plans next week on these Ran across an idea , had we used microriza fungus in the pots for rooting the fungus gnat larva would have went after that rather than the roots themselves. They prefer fungus but will settle for root hairs Seeing some long term root issues in the recovered plants, think those hairs lost remain so thus having to stay on rooting hormones longer than normal

This week I did a final bit of defoliation just to channel the energy to the buds. I upped the EC to 2.1. I got a well priced pkm boost powder from my local hydro shop, wich I added to get the EC levels a bit higher. I will start flushing at the end of this week with a flushing solution. I have also been making use of a dehumidifier to reach optimal RH.

day 42: LOTTA leaves, had to defoliate 2-3 times. they started to show their first pistils a couple days before the Ayahuascas, hope I can do a harvest before May,(the Peyotes) but it seems really tricky..unfortunately I need to leave them for a week in April. I'm pretty scared to leave them alone at the end of flowering... Day 43: do you think the leaves on 2 plants might be too dark green? Thanks! day 46: defoliating

Hola familia, decidimos esperar y curar unas semanas antes de probarla. 19% de thc y es que esta cepa con predominancia indica no deja de sorprendernos a cualquier cultivador, es una cepa no muy complicada para cultivar pero tampoco fácil. 60/65 días de floración cruzada entre northern light x afghani . Buenos céntrales y buenos satélites. Hasta aquí el final del principio.

Hey here we go again.. in the pics I explained how to clean the lava rocks but to make it easier I will put them here. LAVA ROCK CLEANING. 1... fill sink with hot water and about a half bottle of hydrogen peroxide . 2 ...dump rocks into sink 3....shake out rocks from roots...I suggest you do this in another sink then add lava rock to other sink..it keeps from adding to many roots to water sink. 4....skim off all roots from top of water...now while the lava rocks sit in the water..clean the buckets. 5...take fitting from buckets and add to a cup filled with hydrogen peroxide let sit 6...clean buckets with hot water and hydrogen peroxide....dry bucket 7...take fittings out of cup clean off and clean inside fittings..then wash off and put back into buckets. 8... use a colander and add lava rock to it and run hot water over the lava rock as you move them around...then add warm..then cold water this will help make the roots brittle and easy to remove...shake off all water. 9...put rocks back into buckets 10 ...set room back up with all new lines... Enjoy your grow, good luck, have fun Smoke a fatty..see you next week Help out a fellow grower.

Forgot to take pics of last veg weeks lol Onto flower now and these are looking quality! The main lining created a good shape to work with less stress of popcorn nugs at the bottom gettin in the way . Well easier to work with. Will be doing this technique a lot more now. Some white pistils coming through early flower stage 👌🌴🌴 Lowering humidity to 55 and light intensity to 70

Divine Seeds Auto V.2 Contest 👉Sponsored Grow👈 Auto Black Opium W14F9 8/31- 9/6 8/31 I did some pics and trichome checks. The trichomes are still mostly clear. With the lock out resolved, finally black opium is developing some pinks and oranges in her buds. I see pistils still pushing out when her trichomes are still clear. I think at least 3 more weeks are needed. Thank you all for your continued support and encouragement. Your likes and comments motivate me to keep sharing my journey. Let’s continue to learn to grow together! Stay green, growers love 💚🌿, 💫Natrona💫
