The journey of a legend begins: Acapulco Gold. Carefully selected seeds, allowed to hydrate in water for 12 hours, then transferred between two sheets of absorbent paper in a propagator heated to 25°C. After 48 hours, the first roots break the shell: a sign that life has won once again. At the time of the transplant, a light and draining Light Mix bed awaits you, enriched with Cellmax Rootbooster, Extreme Garden and Dynamyco: a welcome designed to immediately stimulate a strong, vital and mycorized radical structure. A simple but fundamental start: here the foundations are laid for healthy and productive plants

Thank you. Gave her a cocktail to help with stress. Added 1st net for lateral support, not so much now, but for later. Blue light is absorbed by photoreceptor proteins called phototropins, which trigger a hormonal response that causes cells on the shaded side to elongate, making the plant bend toward the light. Try and fill this side a little. She is quite big already, just needs to find her stride again after the undue torture. The mind is constantly working and producing, just like a factory. It's not just a passive recipient of information but an active producer of ideas, attitudes, and beliefs. The "ingredients" in this factory are the information you consume, such as books, conversations, and the media you engage with. The "products" are your thoughts, beliefs, and actions. The quality of the ingredients directly influences the quality of the output. To guard the door of your mind means to be selective about what you allow in. It involves actively choosing to consume positive and constructive information while filtering out negativity and harmful influences. If you don't guard your mind, others can "dump" whatever they want into it, leading to undesirable results in your life. You must take responsibility for the inputs to ensure you produce the outcomes you desire. 5 apex stems with 20-30 mini cola, let them develop a little, with the apical dominance shattered, all those 20-30 will all compete with each other as soon as that stretch is initiated. Key to a good stretch is making sure the plant is cycling efficiently, with large ATP conversions occurring lights out. For now, I'm keeping light intensity high. A plant will slow its vertical growth in very high light intensities, leading to a more compact form with thicker stems and leaves. This response is a protective mechanism against light stress, which can damage the photosynthetic apparatus and lead to symptoms like leaf scorching, yellowing, and brittleness. Instead of growing taller, the plant invests its energy into creating a more robust, stress-tolerant structure. Providing plants with necessary antioxidants helps protect the photosynthetic apparatus by scavenging reactive oxygen species (ROS) that cause damage from excess light. UV light exposure can impact the xanthophyll cycle by either enhancing its photoprotective role or causing damage, depending on the intensity and type of UV radiation. UV exposure can trigger the synthesis of more xanthophyll cycle pigments to increase the plant's capacity to dissipate excess energy, but it can also cause direct damage, particularly to Photosystem II, and may lead to a decrease in the de-epoxidation state (DEPS ratio) which indicates a reduced capacity to dissipate excess energy. Plants can respond to UV stress by increasing the synthesis of xanthophyll cycle pigments, such as violaxanthin and zeaxanthin, to improve their photoprotective capacity. UV-induced changes in xanthophyll cycle pigments can be linked to a plant's overall tolerance to high radiation stress. The xanthophyll cycle helps protect against photoinhibition, which is especially important when the plant is exposed to high levels of both UV and visible light. High doses of UV radiation can directly damage photosynthetic components, including the proteins, lipids, and pigments in the thylakoid membranes. Exposure to UV radiation can have a mixed effect on the de-epoxidation state (DEPS ratio) of the xanthophyll cycle pigments. In some cases, UV can inhibit the conversion of violaxanthin to zeaxanthin, resulting in a lower DEPS ratio and a reduced capacity for energy dissipation. However, the total pool of xanthophyll cycle pigments may increase, and this enhanced pool size could provide a greater potential for photoprotection despite a lower DEPS ratio. The xanthophyll cycle works alongside other mechanisms, such as the accumulation of flavonoids (UV screens), to protect the plant from UV-induced damage. Blue light repairs 100% UV-induced damage in plants through a process called photoreactivation, which uses a light-dependent enzyme called photolyase. This enzyme uses energy from blue and UV-A light to directly reverse the damaging pyrimidine dimers in the DNA caused by UV-B radiation, a key mechanism for maintaining the plant's genetic integrity. After carbon, light, water, temperature, and nutrients, the limiting factor of a plant's growth is often its own internal factors or the amount of a key ingredient. Chlorophyll concentration is one such factor, as the amount of this pigment limits how much light can be captured for photosynthesis. Other factors include chloroplast number, respiration rate, and the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, as plants are often in a CO2-deficient condition. 60x60x18=64800seconds x 700 = 45,360,000moles. 45DLI Exposure to 165 µW/cm² of ultraviolet-B (UV-B) light for 3600 seconds = 1 hour, a extremely high, acute dose triggering stress responses and protective mechanisms. . The plant's photoreceptor protein, UVR8, senses the UV-B radiation. This triggers a signaling cascade that activates specific genes to protect the plant from damage. In response to the UV-B signal, the plant ramps up the biosynthesis of protective compounds like flavonoids, phenolic acids, and anthocyanins. These compounds absorb UV radiation and accumulate in the epidermal layers of leaves to shield inner photosynthetic tissues. The plant may increase leaf thickness or deposit more cuticular wax, creating a physical barrier to the radiation. The plant will produce more enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidants to neutralize the reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced by the UV-B radiation. The plant activates enzymes, including photolyases, to repair DNA damage caused by the UV-B. These repair mechanisms are critical for preventing permanent genetic mutations. While protective measures are activated, a high dose delivered over a short period can cause stress that overwhelms the plant's defenses. Photosynthesis is highly sensitive to UV-B. A high dose can inactivate Photosystem II (PSII), damage thylakoid membranes within the chloroplasts, and reduce chlorophyll content, which lowers the plant's overall photosynthetic capacity. Despite repair mechanisms, high UV-B doses can inflict persistent damage on the plant's DNA. The overproduction of reactive oxygen species can cause oxidative stress, leading to the oxidation of lipids and proteins and disrupting cellular function. I am playing in the enchanted forest.

Well she looks like she's finally done stretching she's starting to crown and I can't wait to see what she turns into.. I hope this is going to be a tasty one.. I will say for a half gallon of dirt this is turning into a pretty big plant.. initially I was hoping for an ounce or two just to try it but now I wouldn't be surprised if I end up with three or more... When you use maxi Bloom with Cal mag and silica you don't need a 5 gallon pot or 7 gallon pot to grow a big plant you just need to be able to feed it every day because the pot dries out quick.. that combination of nutrients is literally like steroids for your plants.. as long as you know how to flush properly this is definitely the way to go and it's also 100% the cheapest.. a 3 lb bag of Maxi Bloom is less than 20 bucks and you could do a whole run from beginning to end with just that bag alone.. you can actually do multiple runs with just that bag.. hope all is well Happy growing everyone ✌️

Ending 1st week of flowering Mainlining for 1st time 8x Nodes, topped 3x Tied down to create even canopy Flavour & yield is my biggest aim Day 3 - Tie down training and defoliation. Both strong growers.. WC2 is the biggest so far

1 week done! Really impressed with how strong she is! Let’s gooo we will keep on pushing forward Time to start the plagron sauce

420 Fastbuds Amnesia Haze Auto Week 11 This week has been good I did one final trim of the fan leafs. I'll give them probably a couple more days to allow the flowers to swell and mature just a little more. Still no nutrients up to this point besides what was in the Roots Organic 707 soil. Watering daily about 2 liters or so depending how light the pot feels. Smells is pretty powerful and pungent for sure. All in all Happy Growing

Week 10 January - 16 January 10/1 - Last feed

Northern light day 28 of seeing the world 🤘👊🙏 She got topped a couple of days ago and her lower shoots removed. She got some sunny days but now lots of rain on the way. Transplant after major rain. It’s gazebo time

Week 2 for the solo Afghani went smooth. Looked a little slow to develop her first proper set of leaves, but the root development should help speed up her progression. Still feeding off the slow release 444 and is now regularly drinking about 2oz of water every other day. I also spritz the bottom of the outer cup to keep moisture levels high for stretching roots. She's about 36" from the light. Hoping to get a little stretch to make training easier. Added a couple new pics to get the week caught up. Stay tuned, week 3 starts training.

Humidity is creeping up to where it should be and growth has been explosive as a result. Had to cull a massive Wedding Cheesecake Auto due to a FUCKING NUTSACK. Not growing that fucking strain again, and will be rating very low at Harvest diary Whatever, hope everyone has a great week

Filling in nicely has a great smell starting to frost up. My haze beast smells very sweet like fruit loops cereal. Light took a crap almost 10 days ago only 9 months old. Its a medic grow smart 8. After dealing with getting it replaced in the middle of a grow I am done with them. They make a great light, but the service is terrible. You are forced to work with someone in China who will respond to you at 2am. I had to call, text, email, FB msg and msg through IG to get a response and someone to replace my light. It should be here Tuesday. I bought a Mammoth mint today and am going to run that from now on. 11/20 Grape God has a smell of grape and rubber is the best way I can describe it. The haze beast smells Identical to fruit loops almost caught up to the GG in height.

Flower week 3 successful. Feeding every watering with nutrients and once a week calmag. Next week I start with Aptus K Boost in a lower dose and then let's see how they react. Till now I am super super happy with Aptus 🌱. Big big thanks that I can use the good Stuff💚💛❤️. But we know all the good Stuff comes from Holland 🇳🇱

It’s day 43 of flower! All of the plants look great! I’m going to start dialing back the light intensity slowly over the next couple weeks. Harvest time is getting close

Ehi ragazzi come potete vedere anche questa ragazza sta crescendo più che bene! Grandi foglie e nuovi internodi e diramazioni si sono sviluppate dall ultima settimana, sono più che soddisfatto di come è in grande salute nonostante abbia toppato due volte, mi aspetto un buon numero di cime più o meno della stessa grandezza e produzione, mi aspetto tanto dalla solita qualità che Barney'S Farm offre da decenni ormai! Buon 420 a tutti ringrazio Mars Hydro come al solito che ha reso tutto ciò possibile e tutti voi che mi seguite, spero che che vi piacciono le mie ragazs quanto a me! 💪✌️😸😎🙏🌲💖

Flowering day 73 since time switch to 12/12 h. Hey guys :-) Finally the time has come . The lady was harvested and hung upside down in the dry tent 😍. Before that, she stood in the drying tent in complete darkness for 2 days and the large leaves were removed. The small leaves stay attached during the drying process so that they protect the buds and allow them to dry more slowly and evenly :-) . In the dry tent, the temperature is 18-19.5 degrees and the humidity is 54-58% 👍. In this environment they are now allowed to hang for 10-14 days before they are fine-tuned and trimmed clean by hand. then after trimming they come to ferment for 6-12 weeks in dark jars with bobeda packs 62% to keep the perfect humidity. After a few weeks, the Boveda packs 58% are used so that they can slowly dry out :-) . Of course there is one last update after trimming. Until then, I wish you a lot of fun with the update. Stay healthy and let it grow 💚🙏🏻 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 You can buy this Nutrients at : https://greenbuzzliquids.com/en/shop/ With the discount code: Made_in_Germany you get a discount of 15% on all products from an order value of 100 euros. 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 You can buy this strain at : Clearwater Seeds Water 💧 💧💧 Osmosis water mixed with normal water (24 hours stale that the chlorine evaporates) to 0.2 EC.

Critical is nice and healthy had a good stretch before starting sidebranching but she's doing her thing now 3rd time with this strain so pretty use to how she goes normally rockets in these next few weeks sidebranching like mad she's been fed just water and is doing ok decent root formation compared to some of the others but a bit smaller putting it down to the autos been quicker in general was hoping to put outdoors next week but weather is too cold still not much else to report thanks for reading happy growing guys

Day 71

11/25/2022: starting to see some changes in the lower leaf coloring of the Orange Bubblegum which is a bit surprising since this one started flowering last. Not sure what it is yet. The pot was pretty light, so it could be a watering issue, or maybe nitrogen, based on the lower leaf yellowing. Hit all the plants with a double dose of BuildABloom, some Yah-Whey Thrive, coconut powder, and ThermX-70, so we'll see how she reacts. Could also be lockout from the crazy microbe tea. I'll have to wait and see. The other two plants look great. I also appear to be winning the fungas gnat battle. The Strawberry Gushers still has a population, bit the other to plants have little to no gnats at this point. Included mosquito bits, and neem cake in today's watering as well, so hopefully that will finish them off. Getting down to the final few weeks for the Strawberry Gushers, but the Orange Bubblegum, and Newberry still have another month to go. 11/30/2022: plants are all still healthy. The yellowing of the few lower leaves of the Orange Bubblegum has not spread, so I think the extra dose of BuildABloom did the trick. Also, the neem seed tea caused the ph of the water to drop to around 5, and I didn't bring the ph up the first few roundsnof this, so that could have caused some lock out. My last watering and todays i made sure the ph was at 6.8, so that may have helped as well. I know the organic soil should be a ph buffer, but I still feel the need to ph my water. Today's watering was 1 liter for each plant which included the ThermX-70, coconut powder, and Fish Shit. I also scoped the plants for the first time, and I'm seeing about ver few amber on mainly the leaves. The rest of the plants are about 70% cloudy and 30% clear, so we still have some time, which is right in line with what I expected. 12/1/2022: the fungas gnat war continues. I seem to keeping the population under control, but there are still too many for my liking. I've taken a new tactic and added some beneficial nematodes. Hoping this will wipe them out. I know I just watered yesterday, but couldn't wait, so I gave each plant about 3/4 liter of nematode and ThermX-70 water, ph was 6.9. Still seeing some yellowing on the Orange Bubblegum but only on the lowest leaves which receive the least light. The Strawberry Gushers is definitely beginning to fade, and all 3 are swelling. 12/3/2022: watered each plant with 1.3 liters, at a 6.7 ph, with coconut powder, ThermX-70, and BuildABloom. The Strawberry Gushers and Orange Bubblegum are fading. The Newberry still looks good, except for the one branch with the early fade. Buds look great and all three continue to swell. Still a few fungas gnats flying around, but the population is way down. Plan to water with the nematodes again next watering. Also, started turning the light down slightly. Started with a 50 ppfd reduction. Avg. VPD:1.5 PPFD: 650 DLI: 42
